Business Luncheon with Julien Lafargue, Director, Chief Market Strategist, Barclays Private Bank London

40 years of change – and the investment principles that endure

ABOUT THE EVENT

Join us for our yearly luncheon event in partnership with Barclays Private Bank.

Over the past 40 years, the world has changed profoundly – and arguably even more so in the past 40 months. From the globalisation of the world economy to a return to tariffs and a more fragmented geopolitical landscape, the forces shaping markets have evolved rapidly. Technology has transformed how we invest, while AI is reshaping economies, companies, and equity markets at unprecedented speed.

Against this backdrop, Julien Lafargue, Chief Market Strategist at Barclays Bank PLC UK, will explore what these shifts mean for investors. He will focus on the rise of a more multipolar world, record equity-market concentration, changing correlations, and the evolving role of bonds. He will also consider the growing alternatives to the traditional 60/40 portfolio.

Yet, despite the pace of change, some principles remain timeless: the power of compounding, diversification, and protecting wealth from inflation.

The luncheon will also mark a special milestone as Barclays celebrates 40 years in Switzerland. We look forward to celebrating this journey with them and sharing perspectives on the opportunities and challenges ahead.

We hope you will be able to join us!
